I might be wrong, but it is my understanding that a lot of these warnings deal with undefined or implementation defined behavior and that behavior is changing this release. If that understanding is close, for even some of these, then just suppressing the warnings means the software will behave differently.
There is no perfect translation. Different translations have different aims and that's ok. I love Anne Carson's translations of Sappho but I always give the caveat that she takes a lot of liberties with Sappho when I recommend it to a friend. Having a more literal, dry, translation is fine too.

Do people not understand that Apple's 'price gouging' is about UX? A person who has the money to buy a 1TB iPad is worth more than average customer. A 16GB RAM doubtlessly results in a faster UX and that person is more likely to continue purchasing.
> You can make double or triple that in total compensation at the staff or principal level in the Bay Area.

Sure, it is possible, but that is a small number of roles at a small number of companies, and the vetting process will be more intense. I think the coding interviews we're talking about in this thread are going to be at the junior to mid-level for the most part.
I believe it to be much better to see a candidate write some code quickly, have them write unit tests for it, discover that some cases were not handled properly and then they were.

This is how 99% of developers work, I don't believe anyone who says they write their code perfectly and under stress every single time.
Whats the best book to learn about things like these?
I can't remember all of them, but the abbreviations sort of became a running joke amongst me and my coworkers; specifically we would use them for nicknames of managers we didn't like.

None of them were vulgar or anything, but for example we had taken to calling one of the managers "McNugs" because he stole a bunch of chicken nuggets (like literally a whole box, not just one or two from the line), tried to claim that the workers did it, and we actually needed to get the security footage to exonerate us, and surprisingly he wasn't fired for it. We all started calling him McNugs, which he absolutely hated, but I think he was afraid to do anything about it because he was already on thin ice for trying to frame us.

I might have them written down somewhere, I'll have to look.
You could, alternatively, read less malice into the situation and realize that the majority of people buying an iPad pro don't even need 8gb of RAM to do what they want to do with the device (web browsing + video streaming).
Yeah, don't read "worthy" stuff, or things to enlighten yourself, find your particular brand of entertaining trash and mindlessly consume it.

I recommend bad litrpg and progression fantasy personally. Mother of Learning is a good one to start, it's free on royalroad.com or available on Kindle.
Well I had a microwave with the rotating platter. And now I have one without. And the one without definitely works better. So that's a strike against your theory.
>I still don't get why such questions are even asked as most jobs I've ever had not even remotely touched those and I've touched quite a few industries, technologies and types of companies.

I've had to work on tree traversal stuff multiple times in my life, anything low level GUI related will work with trees a ton.

I've also had to work with hash tables directly, and with memory caching layers.

I really should learn to write a proper parser, as I've had to write parsers multiple times now and they are always an ugly hack job.
That type signature is gnarly, I agree. I've seen people get tripped up because they think the function is the generator, and are confused about what behavior to expect from concurrent readers of different instances of the generator (because they don't realize that they are different instances in the first place). So my position is more about how to work with Python effectively/understand it accurately than in defense of it's syntax.

I am sorry your experience at libraries was so unfulfilling. To me, libraries opened up a world of knowledge. When I was a kid my mom would take my brother and I to the library and just let us loose. As a kid I could spend what felt like days looking at cool cutaway diagrams of castles or reading about how black holes worked. And at the end I took home 5 or 10 of the most interesting books. And it was all free!
> When it comes to reality, [...] If someone went to Stanford it's a strong good signal.

Also, don't overlook the "services" category of CL (e.g. https://sfbay.craigslist.org/search/bbb?query=solar%20instal... it still carries the same "call a rando" risk as does hiring any contractor, but it can be easier than filtering out the higher budget Yelp businesses.

Digital River is shit at everything. From spare parts, to delivery and tracking, to customer communications, to warranty claims. Every single interaction with them is a nightmare. It is the single reason I prefer to buy Lenovo from resellers rather than directly.
Note that SpaceX has since flown eight more crewed missions to the ISS (one is up there now), as well as four other crewed missions to orbit (not for NASA.)
You know that RAM in these machines is more different than the same as "RAM" in a standard PC? Apple's SoC RAM is more or less part of the CPU/GPU and is super fast. And for obvious reasons cannot be added to.

Anyway, I manage a few M1 and M3 machines with 256/8 configs and they all run just as fast as 16 and 32 machines EXCEPT for workloads that need more than 8GB for a process (virtualization) or workloads that need lots of video memory (Lightroom can KILL an 8GB machine that isn't doing anything else...)

The 8GB is stupid discussion isn't "wrong" in the general case, but it is wrong for maybe 80% of users.

i live in Sydney - not far from UNSW :P Campos coffee are phenomenal roaster imo. There's no hype around these light roasts - i would never cold brew them though - i've tried - and it's an incredibly inefficient form of brewing. But light roast itself is a phenomenal thing :)
> to put inference on edge devices...

It will take a long time before you can put performant inference on edge device.

Just download one of the various open source large(st) langage model and test it on your desktop...

Compute power and memory and storage requirements are insane if you want decent result... I mean not just Llama gibberish.

Until such requirement are satisfied, distant model are the way to go, at least for conversational model.

Aside llm, AlphaGo would not run on any end user device, by a long shot, even if it is an already 'old' technology.

I think 'neural engine' on end user device is just marketing nonsense at this current state of the art.
Let me just run this through the trusty ol' DeSnarkifier 8000... clunk hum DING aha, here we are: "There was severe wealth inequality in the past". Hm! Very true! But it doesn't really advance the discussion from "it's never been this extreme", does it? And to address that point, "dozens of castles" begins to look unimpressive next to the wealth of e.g. Jeff Bezos, whose personal fortune exceeds the entire world GDP until approximately the time of William the Conqueror.
I do the same, I can’t see the notch and got a surprise the other day when my mouse cursor disappeared for a moment.

I don’t get the hate for the notch tho. The way I see it, they pushed the menus out of the screen and up into their own dedicated little area. We get more room for content.

It’s like the touchbar for menus. Oh, ok, now I know why people hate it. /jk
So you're saying that someone wasting their time studying leetcode to pass a stupid game is a good indicator?

I would almost believe the opposite: if you actually pass those tests with flying colours, it shows me that you believe you needed to do that to be hired, while someone who's actually experienced would never in a million years step down so low.
Once you invent the gun you can't really stop them proliferating though, people with the means and determination will own them. Allowing one group of people to own them and not others is just asking for the group of owners to dominate and rule over the ones who do not own them.
Litmus, testi@, Email on Acid, InboxMonster, SendForensics, Email Preview Services…

Most if not all also support stuff like deliverability, DMARC testing, Analytics, Accessibility, as well as web-based render testing. I think rendering engine wise, Testi@ has the largest device/platform coverage. Or at least last I checked.
Access to space is a vital enough national interest that it cannot be left to the whims of a single company. The alternative to giving money to the competitors would be installing a politruk in SpaceX and authorizing them to override any decision made by the company. Spending a few billion dollars a year inefficiently is probably preferable to that.
Hey this worked for me this month actually.

I looked through about 800 profiles and did end up finding a co-founder after a couple of months.

800 profiles, 10 matches, 5 zoom calls, 1 accept.

I created a compelling and clear profile and my approach was to be as open an honest as possible about what I'm looking for. As the technical founder I offered 50/50 split as advised by YC.

I stand by my choice and I know that I trust my co-founder 100% and I'm looking forward to the earth shattering product we will launch together in August.
They can obviously do that. They just can't do it fast enough or profitable enough to satisfy their managements' sales goals.

Profit, manufacturing speed, reliability: pick 2.
No, because battery life isn't just about the CPU. The CPU sits idle most of the time and when it's not idle, it's at workloads like 20% or whatever. It's the screens that eat batteries because they're on most or all of the time and sucking juice. Look at Apple's docs and you'll see the battery life is the exact same as the previous model. They have a battery budget and if they save 10% on CPU, they give that 10% to a better screen or something. They can't shrink the battery by half until they make screens twice as efficient, not CPUs which account for only a small fraction of power draw.
Thanks, I reported it too by email.
> AI will deeply centralize power if computing resources and data availability dominate.

I'm sure the compute resources will remain centralized, but I'm growing increasingly doubtful of the current data landscape's ability to keep the data "clean" and not prone to Hapsburg AI scenarios or threat actors working to corrupt this data.
That's fair though that seems to be an implementation detail and not the intended use.

E.g. if the system would actually only activate and transmit when let's say the airbag inflated that'd seem like a good thing in general.

Would there still be ways to exploit it, maybe but it's not the same as what was described in the article

I wonder if BYOE (bring your own electricity) also plays a part in their long term vision? Data centres are expensive in terms of hardware, staffing and energy. Externalising this cost to customers saves money, but also helps to paint a green(washing) narrative. It's more meaningful to more people to say they've cut their energy consumption by x than to say they have a better server obselesence strategy, for example.

Adding fares just means the nuisance riders will jump the fares. It won't stop them from riding.
Ignoring the issue of Atlas being EOL: At the rate Starliner is progressing, it would be faster to wait for SpaceX to fix whatever was ailing Falcon 9 than to wait for Starliner to be ready.
There shouldn’t be a problem with the name, but my experience tells me that people don’t comprehend it the majority of the time, and assume incorrectly that cold brewed must be served cold. This mentality is even here in this thread in a few places. It does seem like some other word than “cold” might help avoid leading people into an erroneous conclusion.
Uh-oh. Did they forget they could just suppress the research? /s

For real though, I can't imagine there is any financial point to having a Covid vaccine out there. There are better options now. The price pressure is downward. The effectiveness is down. Existing strains of Covid are pretty benign. Even a minor side effect at this point does not seem like it's worth the bother.

Even the original Operation Lightspeed participation ended up being a massive financial lark for the companies (at least the companies that didn't pour the investment into RNA research).
Why do you say moralising? Surely sports are something people do because they're fun, and prestige sports, to demonstrate skill, finesse and the kind of complete capability that engaging in the sport at a high level requires.

I think when people have more of their needs fulfilled, it becomes more rational to tackle the final bits. When you're poor, you care about food and having somewhere to live, then at an intermediate level it's about paying the bills and not falling down into the poverty hole, then at a higher level it's succeeding at university, doing good research, making a successful company, but when you have all that, and you can't lose any of these things, then you start also wanting other things, and then playing sports reasonably often becomes extremely natural.

If someone is getting fat, or eating to excess, there has to be something wrong. Something stressing them, something they want to turn away from, to distract themselves. Happy people don't have such needs.
I’ve oftened wondered that over the years. Maybe that’s why the young ones are usually on the front lines. Another related possibly more difficult, is how many of us would have turned the key without prior world tensions occurring. Before each alert we received a pre-departure briefing on current world conditions. I think an out-of-the-blue order would have been very difficult… We periodically lost a crew member due to internal personal changes with respect to one’s willingness to follow through. One of my early Commanders pulled himself off and left the service to become a Greek Orthodox priest and is still at it today.
Isn’t the problem that this is recursive? i.e. if you use a component which itself contains a component that contains a button and that button should be styled should the intermediate components be worrying about it? And does the end consuming application need to care when new widgets are added to components nested two deep?

It is almost like the need for styling necessitates all the old dependency injection and factory gunk that older frameworks became notorious for.
I hated reading even before phones were "cool", I just didn't find it the best medium for me.

Now I still hate the act of reading but it's often eclipsed by the joy I get from acquiring new knowledge.

So no, it doesn't need to be phones.

I wish Apple's ads were delivered as notifications. Then I could disable them. But Apple allows me to disable notifications for everyone but themselves.

I get emails, popups, and banners on my iPhone. They're on my lock screen, in the Music app nav bar, and draped across the top of Settings. They repeatedly nag me to upgrade my iCloud storage, try Apple Music, see what's new in Apple TV, and check out their financial services. They hassle me on macOS too.

Windows 10 is tame in comparison. I just got a Pixel phone and it pesters me more than my iPhone did, but not by much.
I dunno man. A good third of my class seems to be working at FAANG and we're all from an unremarkable university in Eastern Europe. I'd imagine the prospects are much better if you start in the States already.
The Hobbit is banned by multiple school districts. It actually pissed off a lot of teachers too. It is books like that being banned that make teachers not want to have a library at all. It is really easy to have a banned book, and teachers do not have the time to source each book in their already existing libraries.

But I guess in their words:

> the teacher's goal is mainly to push up against someone's line, politically
> The thesis is not that these exercises are representative of work but rather predictive of performance.

Well said. Just like in college, calculus (not analysis) and organic chemistry are used as filter courses. Of course, why the two courses, especially organic chemistry, are so hard to American students is another topic. I personally think that it shows the failure of the education system of the US.
Half right. At night, they direct all traffic onto the shoulder / emergency lane and roll the bridge forward 100m with no traffic going over it at the time. By day, the bridge is stationary, traffic goes over it, and work goes on underneath.
"A clear indicator that a doc might not be necessary are design docs that are really implementation manuals."

Where I work - this is what they want from a design doc. They want it to be such that you could hand it off to anyone and they could implement it.

Isn't HN mainly text? Aren't you reading?
Snobbery is an expensive pastime.
If you are not in a hurry, you almost never should buy new hardware as the next generation will be around the corner. On the other side, it could be up to 12 months, until the M4 is available across the line. And for most tasks, a M3 is a great value too. One might watch how many AI features that would benefit from a M4 are presented at WWDC. But then, the next Mac OS release won't be out before October.
I feel like this would just have been shrugworthy news if SpaceX didn't exist. Most NASA projects used to be like this. The problem for all the other companies is that SpaceX showed up.
Sure, but then you’re just reinforcing the attitude that reading is just for stodgy old people rather than a way to understand the world as it is today.
> Apple is actively achieving that goal, with their many year strategy of in house silicon/features

So are other companies, with their many year strategy of actually building models that accessible to the public.

yet Apple is "actively" achieving the goal without any distinct models.
Interesting. As a not-React user, it feels like a very positive thing that the framework is keeping up with alternatives like Vue (https://vuejs.org/guide/extras/web-components) and Svelte (https://svelte.dev/docs/custom-elements-api) in terms of standards support.

> I have, once again, failed an interview

Can we stop calling it "failing" when a company decides you're not a good fit? If you go on a date and don't get asked for a 2nd, did you fail the date? You're not just what they're looking for right now; not everything has to be a failure.

> for every 1-hour interview where I evaluated if someone knew their data structures, I could have just taught them

I'm sorry, what? He thinks it takes one hour to teach someone data structures? We sure are wasting our time with those multiple college courses and hundreds of textbooks on the subject then. We should just get this guy to spend one hour imparting all necessary knowledge into everyone.

> it’s often said that what’s more important is how you solve the problem, not that you solve the problem, but in practice human biases will work against you if you don’t get close to it working.

Human biases are much more likely to work against you if the interviewers have not spent time trying to come up with a consistent test that they give everyone. Does the author think human bias is absent from non-technical interviews? The less standard your hiring methods are, the more bias you'll have.

> I’ll just keep practicing for interviews until I successfully trick someone into thinking that I know how to code and then secretely become one of the best employees they have ever had.

I don't know who Darren Kopp is, so maybe I'm about to get an army of replies saying he's their coding role model, but this is an article about whether code interviews work or not, and he's basically saying "if they don't hire me, who will definitely become one of the best employees they've ever had, then their coding interview process must suck". The other possibility is that Darren Kopp just isn't actually tremendously more stellar than everyone else and coding interviews are actually kinda working. For his argument to work, he has to be one of the best possible candidates for every job he's applying for. I just kinda doubt that.
Presumably the road has to be closed for the bridge to travel? I assume this takes place at night.
Well, a singly linked list is actually one of the most important data structure I've found :).

From there, one can modify it to implement tries.

And then one can understand trees, arborescences etc.

The rest is about algorithmic complexity (speed and size) which I never remember but that's easy to look it up.

It's true that someone who does simple frontend engineering (for example) might not need to know too much about that.

But for instance, it was just a couple weeks ago that I've realized a markov chain is just a bunch of linked lists (a DAG, Directed Acyclic Graph).

I've found Computer Science to be a very nice framework to think about the world.
